The Young and the Restless: December 2014 Thread

I am pretty sure Gwen was brought on to be paired with Devon. She is the other side of that triangle that originally thought to make with Neil. I fully expect her and Devon to be together as a couple before the affair comes out. Someone has to keep Devon and Hilary apart. A pregnant Gwen is just the thing. However, they do need to have her interact with others in her age group besides her love interest (Devon) and her rival for his affections (Hilary). I don't understand why Lily, Devon, and Hilary aren't interacting with Mariah, Noah, Summer, Abby, and Austin. I excluded Peter Pan because he is not in their age group.

Phyllis is a terror riding through town causing misery as she goes. When she told Jack that she always gets her way the other day, I hollered! She definitely needs an ego checker.

Oh, I definitely think that's happening. Every once in awhile she says something really off the wall, that shows how much rage she has inside. Like when she said if she knew who Jack had been dating she'd have to kill her. I know some think Kelly is going to lose it, but I think Phyllis will. I'd say either Kelly is pregnant or Phyllis is going to catch her and Jack having sex.

Cassadine the thing is this kind of writing is very smart psychological writing that is not meant to appeal to masses. What I am seeing what Jean has done is get into our pysches with this writing and make us think. I feel smarter and more upscale as viewer watching the soap psychological dynamo galore on my screen. It's the least campy y and r has been in years and follows the Bell and Allen formula. Again some shows dumb u down this one makes u think and gain some IQ points.

If I wanted to feel smarter after watching TV I'd watch PBS. I watch soaps to be entertained. tongue.png

I like the new Adam as well. I hated the last one and probably because i enjoyed Chris Engen in the role so much. I can't wait to see JH interact with the rest of the cast. He and SC as Sharon could be smokin' in written correctly. Always hated Adam and Sharon before but I'd go for a second round now. Throw in a Sharon/Chelsea rivalry and even better.

I just want this Devon/Hilary story over already. It's gone on waaaaay too long. And when is Neil going to get his eyesight back? I'd rather he gradually get it back without telling anyone and it is him that sees Devon/Hilary "together" for himself.

    • Good riddance, Brad! What a waste of a potentially decent character.

    • Does anyone know which head writer introduced the Marriott family?  That is about the time I noticed something important had changed in the writing for Love of Life. Everything was really falling apart, and I could hardly get through an episode.  But I will admit, Hugh Marlowe's son was a beautiful man. He played the Marriott son, maybe his name was Andy.  Not sure.  
    • I like Dani and I love that she's protective but she was doing way too much with Eva/Nicole
    • so the first 20 minutes was Leslie fantasizing about Ted, the beginning of Dani/Nicole, and the beginnings of some of the other scenes that aired in part on the east coast? The Eva/Leslie scene sounds amazing from the Canadian recappers.  Only one hour until it's uploaded online and I can watch!

    • Just noticed that Tyler Topits was listed as a breakdown writer on Days today. Don't know if that's a first time or not. I know he's a writers assistant and has written scripts before.
    • Yeah.  Dante needs talk to his son about binge drinking instead of running around town yelling at everyone lol. Jason should be a little more on top of what's happening with his son, but I thought both Rocco and Danny were supposed to go to a baseball game with Dante last night anyhow.

    • With Raven & Draper, it's more "past-shadowing" than "foreshadowing".   Draper dated Raven a couple of years earlier (1976 or 1977).  Draper's father is a sleazy but successful attorney named Ansel Scott.  Ansel Scott became engaged to a vain, wealthy, middle-aged widow named Mrs. Nadine Alexander.  Nadine's husband had been dead for many years, but she had a nubile, shallow, selfish daughter named Raven Alexander who was about Draper's age.  Nadine thought it would be WONDERFUL if Draper took Raven out to dinner and showed her a few nice evenings.  He obliged.  But it soon became evident that Raven had a "daddy fixation" -- Raven didn't care much for her mother, but she was practically in love with the memory of her deceased father.  Since her father was no longer around, Raven decided her new stepfather (Ansel Scott) would be a suitable substitute, so she began batting her eyes and wiggling her ass at Ansel.  Ultimately, Ansel Scott and Nadine Alexander got married and moved to London.  To Draper, Raven is nothing more than the horrible girl who was always attempting to seduce his father.   To make herself even MORE unlikable to Draper (and to April), Raven lied for several months about the paternity of her baby, little Jamey Swift.  She told April that Draper had fathered the child, as Kevin Jamison was sterile.  Well, really it was Logan Swift who'd gotten her pregnant, but she did her best to make April believe Draper was the baby daddy. April and Draper absolutely can't stand Raven -- but April LOVES Jamey Swift, as April had a miscarriage and lost her baby and can theoretically never get pregnant again.  April thinks of Jamey Swift as the baby she'll never have.  If Raven ever announces any intention of moving to London to be with Nadine and Ansel, you can already guess where she'll be dumping Jamey, lol.    In my opinion, Margo is one of the most fascinating characters on the show.  She's like a contagion, contaminating everyone she touches, but she's so forlorn and needy that you can't help but love her.  The actress (Ann Williams) puts a tremendous amount of depth into Margo Huntington.   
    • She, the star of the show that she is, was fantastic in the episode, and the scene does include her, but it's more on the embarrassing side of things, much more. It's certainly a fresh idea, I can say that.
